Yeah, that's the conclusion I had come to, but it's nice to have some
confirmation.

BTW, I followed the instructions
in /usr/share/doc/pilot-link-0.12.3/README.fedora to set up the visor
module. I can synchronize this way by pointing gome-pilot
at /dev/ttyUSB0, but the /dev/pilot link does not get created. Here's
what I get in /var/log/messages when I press the cradle's hotsync
button:

An extremely minor issue to be sure, but I'm curious why I don't get 
/dev/pilot. Ideas?
